What type of Guard Dog would you recommend for me?

Doberman Pincher! A well trained Doberman is just like a member of the family until there is a problem, then they become GREAT guardians. They are: Smart, Loyal, Friendly, and Loving and can be among the best dogs of any type if properly trained.

You might want to try a doberman rescue center! They have many good dogs that are in need of a good home.

Mastiffs are good too. They're really big so they look intimidating, but they're gentle and loyal, and if someone breaks in they will pin them down and bark until you come. They're not super hard to train, but depending on the type of mastiff, they can be over 150 pounds.

The link shows all the mastiff breed and the site has good info. http://www.love-my-english-mastiffs.com/...

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
